Do you think cooking classes should be given to everyone in like highschool?

@ninalanyon norway is a good place to live so maybe, here in belgium in a couple of schools you'll have the option, but only in certain areas anyone doing engineering can't take a cooking class for example.

@popmol They do cookery here before they specialise at the age of fifteen. Then they have two options: studieforberedende eller yrkesfaglige.

Broadly speaking:
- studieforberedende is literally preparation for study, that is, preparation for academic tertiary education, typically university.

- yrkesfaglige means vocational, that's things like preparing for an apprenticeship as an electrician, plumber, carpenter, etc. Work that typically involves handicrafts rather than analytical thinking.

I think both groups have to study both Norwegian and a foreign language but perhaps not to the same level.

@ninalanyon they only specialize at 15? liek really specialise?
here you split at first year of highschool into several big things like technology or maths or languages then split up at 14 then even more at 16.

ooh here its similar, we split them into 3 kind of types, ASO which is academics, greek latin, languages maths and such.

TSO which is technology everything from engineering and such things.

last is BSO which is all the hands on things, working with wood or electricity and such!
